Pagans

Notes

Original by James Toth/The Blood Group. I played hurdy gurdy on the original track and was fascinated by James' mastery of lyrics here. Such a brilliant song writer. This recording was released in 2012, then remixed and remastered in 2016 by Alan Douches at West West Side Music.

Lyrics

On an auto-pilot astral plane full of smugglers who release the strain of time.

An ownership of sight and sound, drowning beside the box you weighted down.

All the relics from another place traded to merchants to give up your space for time.

Reversal of an outbound sort and constellations that the scopes ignore in.

 

You'll be knifed and stabbed.

 

A haggard watcher in a gentle place, where pricks and pagans fall and grab new shapes in light.

 

Those anchors drag the river clean, a privy palace where the boats convene, reveal.

 

You'll be chased a while. Right now.

 

You'll be knifed and stabbed. You'll be chased a while, alright.
